It's hard for my elder sister. I rely on the mountains to farm and pay off my debts.

"I'll go inform everyone right away!" After saying this, he raised his foot to leave.

He thought of something, so he stopped and asked, "Your Aunt Hu can go to the cement workshop to work in the future. I won't tell her about this hat-crocheting job. Yingzi, that child..."

Before the Song clan leader could finish his words, Song Zhi said frankly, "That's the grudge between Aunt Hu and me. I won't involve Yingzi in this. If Yingzi is willing to come, I'm welcome to come. The only thing I've just said is that the crochet skills cannot be passed on to outsiders within five years!"

The two little girls are of similar age and both lost their fathers. Their similar experiences make them closer.

In addition, Yingzi had a strong grandmother in the past, and she was forced to split up the family.

This directly led to the little girl being suppressed and becoming very cowardly. The original person had a stronger personality. When he saw Yingzi being bullied, he couldn't help but want to help her.

Over time, the two became friends.

In fact, Yingzi had privately advised the original body's family to get along well with each other, but the original body thought that this was just like being good friends, and they had to endure everything, so he didn't listen to her at all.

In fact, now that she has traveled through time, she doesn’t know what attitude she should have when facing Yingzi.

Her former good friend has passed away, and now she has changed her mind.

Maybe she could have avoided this problem in the past, but now she invites everyone in the village to come to her house to do work, but she is the only one not allowed to come.

It seems that this is also a kind of harm to the little girl. Well, let's just let it go.

When the Song clan leader heard what Song Zhi said, he immediately expressed his opinion, "Don't worry about this matter. I will also tell Hu Shi. Although she often makes mistakes, she is also a person who knows the importance of things."

"The three of them, mother and son, have their biggest support now, and Hu's family is extremely poor. If they offend the villagers, the clan will no longer tolerate them. She understands such a simple truth."

"Besides, Yingzi is a sensible child. Given her family's current situation and her mother's bad reputation, I'm afraid she won't be able to find a good family to marry into in the future."

"If I can learn a good skill here, and the elders in our village help me with the process, it will be worth it for her to call me the grandfather of the clan."

What the Song clan leader said to Song Zhi could be said to have revealed his true feelings to Song Zhi.

Song Zhi also saw in this old man the care of an elder for a younger generation.

She felt fortunate from the bottom of her heart that although the small mountain village she arrived at was poor, the villagers were very kind.

At this moment, she didn't know what to say, so she just nodded in agreement.

Seeing that he had convinced the child, the Song clan leader said, "Okay, then this matter is settled. I will go and tell everyone about this matter first. Be prepared. I estimate that I will come to your house to ask for information soon."

After saying that, he happily went to the village with his hands behind his back.

After seeing off the Song clan leader, the Song family members were not idle either.

Mrs. Wu urged her son, "The village cement workshop will be busy soon. While everyone still has some free time to help build the wall, go get the bricks and stones!"

Song Youshan didn't dare to delay any longer and went out immediately to buy bricks and stones.

Song Zhi was also busy and started preparing to make mugwort soap.

Here, Song Zhigang put the wood ash water aside and prepared to start cutting lard and boiling lard.

The voices of villagers could be heard from outside the yard.

Yang, who was helping out in the kitchen, took over the work from Song Zhi. "They must be here to ask about your work. Go out and tell them that I can handle the lard boiling."

Song Zhi didn't act shy. She thanked him and walked out to greet him.

The women in the village all lit up their eyes when they saw Song Zhi.

Some of those who were very familiar with her even stepped forward and grabbed Song Zhi's arm, eagerly asking what they had just heard from the head of the Song clan.

"Azhi girl, you really have work for us to do, and you're paying us fifteen cents a day? Are you just trying to make us happy?"

Song Zhi said sincerely, "Of course it's true. If you ladies do well, I will give you extra rewards every month. The top three performers will receive rewards ranging from 200, 100, and 50 coins respectively."

"Within a month, the three people who make the most progress will also receive a reward of thirty coins."

When everyone heard this, they were in an uproar like a market.

Earning more than 400 coins a month is already a great thing for women like these. If they do well, there will be extra rewards.

It's a job that can be done right at home, which makes everyone very excited.

The women were afraid that if they expressed their opinions too late, they would miss such a good opportunity. They all raised their hands and said, "I, I, I, Ah Zhi, look at my aunt, I have a lot of strength. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west. I will make sure I don't delay your business."

"Hey, Sister Guihua, why are you squeezing us? Do you know what Azhi wants us to do? What's the use of just having strength? Sister is not asking you to farm the land."

It’s true, at least half of the women standing in the Song family courtyard at this moment really don’t know what Song Zhi wants to hire them for.

After hearing the patriarch say that they would earn fifteen cents a day, they came without caring about anything else.

Song Zhi saw confusion in their expressions.

So she simply repeated what she had just said to Clan Leader Song to all the aunts.

"Let me be frank. If you are willing to accept my terms, we can sign a contract and come to my house tomorrow to learn how to crochet woolen hats. If you are not willing..."

Before Song Zhi finished speaking, the women hurriedly expressed their opinions: "Yes, yes, we have no problem. Don't worry, little girl Azhi, you lead us to make money, and we will never do anything ungrateful."

"That's right, that's right. If anyone dares to pass on what they've learned to their relatives from their mother's side, don't blame us for not respecting neighborly friendship."

"When the time comes, we will hand them over to the authorities, and we will show no mercy or favoritism."

Seeing that no one had any objections, Song Zhi immediately went back to her room to get pen and ink, wrote a contract on the spot, and then read it again in front of everyone.

"If you have no questions, please come forward and sign."

A woman came forward with her half-grown daughter to sign the agreement. Seeing this, another woman couldn't help but ask Song Zhi, "Azhi, how many people can a family send out at most?"

"Will you also accept younger children?"

Song Zhi nodded. "I don't care about age when it comes to working for me. As long as they can follow my requirements and do the work well, I welcome all the sisters and sisters in the village who want to come!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the woman, who originally had little labor in the family but was left alone, became even more excited.

Someone quietly retreated behind the crowd, turned around and ran home to inform his family of the good news.
